This animation shows a 3D view of one of the first heavy ion collisions recorded at the Large Hadron Collider in CERN. This event was seen on 7th November 2010 when Lead nuclei collided with a total energy of 574 TeV leaving a shower of thousands of particles.

amazing .. thanks for sharing .. god bless

The quarks in the protons and neutrons smash apart into smaller particles, they only last a very short amount of time before they rebond in a more stable state (back into quarks, and then back into protons and neutrons. "particles" don't exist the way people thought they did, particles are a collection of standing waves that generate certain properties, when you bust them up, they either realign, or cancel out and become energy. that's how there are so many "sparks"

Lots of new particles get created from the initial kinetic energy, then those decay into many others.

So, how many "subatomic" particals are there in a heavy ion? The images on those monitors imply that there must be thousands. How can this be?

just need to build an outer ring detector as well.

I'm not a nuclear physicist but I can see from a mile away that the detector was way too small, so basically a good part of the results was lost.

The original idea, as I recall, was to produce the elusive z boson in quantity, so as to examine possible decay into some particle representing the color forces that bind quarks. Did I miss something?

can't wait to see how this effects our knowledge of science now =)
